It seems to make sense to have Eleima's picks as an offering for a month and then remove them. That way people can try them if they want or play them as an alternative to the main selection but those games aren't part of the main 'elected' list. As you say if three others champion the game and want it to stay until it's a main pick then that's a way in for them (in a sense though, I guess, the games have already been a pick of sorts.)
Maybe Eleima's Picks get their own pool? Which I guess is just Elemia's memory?
I would like to Nominate "Everyone's Gone to the Rapture." Gorgeous with a really interesting story told in a unique way.
I nominate The Inner World. Not sure if it's in the list already (I should check again hehehe), but I just got it for less than a dollar, so yeah.
Does Rime count?
I really want to finish that game so I'll third Rime.
I'd only do a second round if there's not a clear winner in the first.
I'm happy for voting to start on the 15th, nice to have a couple of weeks to build up some anticipation.
About two rounds; personally, I don't think it's necessary unless there's a tie or two(+) titles are bouncing back and forth between first and second. If everyone's clear that they can vote for as many titles as they want, then the winner of the first round should work for the most people.
Greetings fellow adventurers!
So I'm going to be a horrible tease and announce that I've picked nine games at random for us to vote for tomorrow. I'm not telling you what they are... yet. But I will say those are some good ones!
I still haven't decided on my own pick yet, but the poll and descriptions will be up either late tonight or (more likely) tomorrow morning.REMINDER: the poll is multiple choice, you can vote for all the games you'd like to play!
Looking forward to the post, Eleima!
Can't wait to see this month's choices!
Lots of solid games. Not sure I’d be disappointed if any of those won.
Agreed. As I could happily vote for the lot I'll probably limit my pick to just the one!
Great options! Not voting yet cause I wanna look into the titles I'm less familiar with. I'm glad I have multiple votes... It'd be tough to pick just one!
...you can be eaten by a grue...
You have my attention.
There is one in particular I would love to play, just a smidge above all others hence the one vote only. Which one I won't say, though if folks wanted to chit chat about how great Gone Home was and how interesting it would be to see what the creators did next, maybe in a Sci-Fi setting... I'd be fine with that
Aw, Zork... if only I had somewhere to run it. Alas, my current leftover lappy isn't much to look at - it's barely a toaster - and my other competent piece of hardware is a chromebook, so yeah.
I nevertheless voted and it's as follows:
Day of the Tentacle
Tacoma
Thimbleweed Park
Broken Age
Hell yeah, Zork Nemesis. I spent SO much time with this game when it was originally released and I was 14. I'm not sure whether I ever beat it. I know I spent countless hours banging my head against it and occasionally progressing, but am unsure whether I ever just loaded up a FAQ and got through to the end. I voted for that, Tacoma, Thimbleweed Park, and Pillars of the Earth. With the other three being games I haven't played that I would like to.
Full disclosure, I voted for five, so... Have at it. Don't limit yourself to one!
I'm going to pimp out my pick, Zork Nemesis, because well, it's my pick, and I love it to death.
Definitely on my list of most beloved games ever. I was over the moon with it when it first came out - I would only play it after dark by candlelight, and kept an in-character journal of my adventure (almost room-by-room) as the PC. Kinda wish I still had that, though I'm pretty sure I found it a few years later and thought it was embarrassing enough to trash.

That is so helpful, ClockworkHouse. Thanks!
Prime subscribers, a reminder that Tacoma was a freebie earlier this year. Just in case you'd forgotten it was tucked away on your Twitch pile.
